Did you know there is NIH funding for available to support a student transitioning from a toxic or unsafe lab space to a new lab?

Faculty can apply for “Re-entry and Re-Integration Supplements”.

I had no idea this resource existed!

Musk turned one of the biggest sites on the internet into a crater within a month.

I never want to hear anyone call him other than a dipshit ever again.

@cpt_bwt @BethBGenetics Yeah right. This is barely one PhD worth of tips.

@docbowie Strange that mouth pipetting is still a thing? lol

It's around that time of the year now when Research Experience for Undergraduate (REU) applications are opening up!

Bringing back this thread for any STEM undergraduate students based in the U.S. looking for guidance on applying to these PAID summer research opportunities 🤑

@motorresx Wow do they car about the hours overtime each person works too? Cuz I guarantee a week off for a strike or any other purpose is owed to many people there.

It’s not that I didn’t find them. The typo gnomes insert them at the precise moment of sending/submitting

Simply put: science and solidarity.

As Dr. Iris Cardona, who leads #PuertoRico’s Department of Health vaccination efforts, said “Puerto Rican people at all levels have cooperated.” https://t.co/AdEPq6ZoBt

@Caroline_Bartma I think most of these depend on the work you are doing, tbh.

[5tolife-PhD STEM Resource @5toLifePod]

@thecopperdoctor @Caroline_Bartma Is this for sequencing?

[5tolife-PhD STEM Resource @5toLifePod]

@KridelSteven I hadn’t thought to bring it up before being hired because I honestly didn’t think things would work out this well so now I am wondering how if I can/ how to go about the process.

[5tolife-PhD STEM Resource @5toLifePod]

When you get your own funding, is that a time to ask your PI for a supplemental raise?

Is that a thing?

[5tolife-PhD STEM Resource @5toLifePod]

@KridelSteven So the situation is I was hired and immediately (1 month later) got my own salary/research/expenses funding to work on a project w/ data already collected. So don’t really need extra research funding and did wonder if that was a good enough scenario to bring up a possible raise.

[5tolife-PhD STEM Resource @5toLifePod]

@KridelSteven True, but there is an opportunity for it? Or a precedent for this type of raise if there another source of funding?

[5tolife-PhD STEM Resource @5toLifePod]

This is why I looked into fee waivers and applying to programs that had benefits like free applications. Also found a MS and PhD program that would pay for me to be there. It is difficult but entirely possible to get through grad school without the debt.
